Compliments all night
Most importantly, this dress was comfortable! It was a great length, hugged the curves and was gorgeous in person. Everyone loved it!

Color popped!
The dress was a gorgeous color and perfect for a late fall (warm) outdoor wedding. It was really comfortable. The train was a little long for me, as I don't wear too much of a heal - but it worked out well. Loved the dress. Tons of compliments.
Cobalt High Low Gown

Perfect dress!
This was a huge hit for a fall wedding outdoors. My only issue was the arm straps are a little prohibitive of dancing too wildly on the dance floor! Great dress. Tons of compliments.
Dark Floral Dress

Size Worn: 8

Beautifully fitted.
I wore this to an inaugural ball. It had enough stretch to commodore my curvy figure that often is disproportionate due to a small waist. It was unique from everyone else there and I loved it. There's a short version in blue I'm dying to rent too! Highly recommend. The only issue I had really was the length was a bit short - as some mentioned in other posts.
Ivy Gown

A+
This dress was perfect. Accentuated the cleavage without being inappropriate. Hugged the curves and looked perfect. I got comments all night long! The dress I got didn't have a purple ribbon, but rather a dark blue waistline. The bodice appeared to be black lace and the skirt a very very dark blue.

Spanx would've made it right.
As you can tell, this dress is clingy! It was a little conservative for the event I was attending, but otherwise would have been great. I wore the backup style I received instead.

Didn't wear it, but a close second.
I didn't end up wearing this dress, but I loved it. It was a bit poofy for my liking - which I why I ended up wearing a more fitted dress instead. The pockets were awesome and the color was stunning. I'd consider it for a spring or summer affair.

Needed work but gorgeous gown!
The dress needed pressing when I received it, but it was as gorgeous as I had hoped. The finish is a lot more matte than shiny. The train was an issue - the inner lining that was supposed to be sewn up in the back so when you looked at me straight on you saw the floral pattern, was not sewn up and basically just dragged the ground. I had to tack that up, and repair a hole in the waistline. The fit was great, though i probably could've sized down. I carry my weight in my hips and so the bust and waist were roomy. Despite this dress being in really poor shape, it was a hit at the black tie wedding I attended. I'd wear the dress again in a heartbeat.
